A journey of my Labrador Retriever, Sylke's recovery from paralysis caused by a herniated disc.

Walking in Snow
Well, we had some snow yesterday. While Sylke loves the snow and wants to run around in it, it demonstrated her residual weakness in the hindquarters. She has trouble navigating in the crusty snow so she is back to using the sling when she goes for walks out in the yard. I don't want her slipping sidewalks and reinjuring her spine. BUT - last night when the snow was soft and fluffy, she got the zoomies something awful, and butt tucked in little circles, picked up sticks and tossed them in the air and pounced on them. She was like a puppy enjoying her first snowfall ever. It was wonderful to see.

Snow and Butt Tucking Going On!
It is snowing this morning. I took the girls out to go potty and then in a little burst of happiness, Sylke did a spinning little butt tuck!! My girl loves the snow and can really move when she wants to!
